Novel

Novel draws together artists writing, texts and poetry that oscillate between modes of fiction and criticism. Disconnected from any unitary theme these texts coalesce around writing as a core material for artists that traverse between script and transcript.

Novel is distributed through events, readings and screenings which are staged at venues that become the loci for reading; curated with artworks and related films that augment the fictioning of a scenario. This scenario will be the summation of multiple experiences and anxieties that demands new forms of critical fiction. These new strategies require an active protagonist, a polymath who can amalgamate them with fluency. Fiction is not made up, it is based on everything we can learn or use; a zone in which all sources of knowledge are valid.
